AIADMK MLAs leave Puducherry resort amid poaching fears, likely to be shifted to Chennai | WATCH

More than 40 AIADMK MLAs left a luxury resort in Puducherry on Saturday amid growing political speculation and fears of possible poaching attempts.

Visuals showed the legislators exiting the resort in groups as the political buzz around the AIADMK camp intensified.

When reporters asked the MLAs where they were headed, several of them avoided giving a direct answer and simply gestured that they “do not know”. The development has triggered fresh political chatter in Tamil Nadu politics, with AIADMK leaders maintaining tight control over the movement of party legislators.

According to sources, the MLAs are likely to be moved to Chennai later in the afternoon. The sudden relocation has added to speculation over internal political calculations and concerns over possible attempts to influence legislators.

The movement of MLAs from the Puducherry resort comes at a time when political parties across the region are closely monitoring developments within the opposition camp. Security arrangements around the resort were also reportedly tightened before the legislators departed.

Why are AIADMK MLAs being shifted from Puducherry?

Sources indicated that the legislators were staying together at the resort amid fears of poaching by rival political groups. Such resort stays have often been used by political parties during sensitive political situations to keep legislators together and prevent cross-voting or defections.
